    ABOUT KID NATION
    Welcome to Kid Nation, one of the most insane reality TV shows ever made, where unaccompanied minors are driven to the middle of the desert to build a society from scratch: cook for themselves, clean for themselves, run their own economy, and drink bleach for themselves off-camera (look it up, it happened). This show was so nuts it leaves you wondering: Is this the worst reality show ever made?

      @Shsbd Dbshak Yes. I have a feeling the producers probably had him say the “drink root beer to get her off my mind” line cause it was revealed they manipulated the kids quite a bit, but it is an actual moment in the show and I couldn’t help but laugh first tone watching it

      I cannot be responsible for this show tightening its grip on your psyche, so I'll give it to you straight: they all take a vote and overwhelmingly vote for the holy books. Was the show subtly manipulating them up until this point to favor the holy books? Yes. But maybe that was the right choice anyway, or at least what they would have chosen anyway. or maybe not! Good art asks more questions than it answers.
